Searching for a solution to my problem I found this forum.
Hope someone here can help.
Instead of manually updating a table by using copy/paste from a web page, I would like to read the page directly from php. Pasing the contents would be a breeze, but I have no clue about how to read it.
Guess it could be done with sockets, but I know nothing about sockets, and from what I've read it requires an IP address, and what I have is a URL so it might need some DNS communication before I could set up the socket.
Or could I use wget to store the html in a file? Set up a pipe?
I'm fairly blank about this although I have been programming in php for some time.
If I just knew what to do ... :)
Thanks!
